Sale pending! Parts in red are spoken for at this time.
A build has changed directions for a customer. The short block was originally intended for boost, but it could also make a pretty stout nitrous motor as well. The only issue with running it NA is that the rings are a little looser than what I prefer for regular street use for NA, but *might* pair well with a higher SCR; this can be achieved with a lower CC combustion chamber.
This setup has ZERO miles on it. The block is fresh from the machine shop after a thorough cleaning, fresh cam bearings, and with beautifully honed cylinders. It was also slightly decked to obtain the piston height, ring gaps, and quench I desired for the goals of the build - ~20 psi on pump gas to achieve >1,000rwhp. The rotating assembly was matched and balanced. If the specifics of the build are requested by the potential buyer, I will share them once a deposit has been made.

I'm not really sure at this point where to start the pricing since there are so many avenues the buyer can take this build. Pricing listed below are to get ideas going..
Short block as assembled in the pictures $Pending
I am willing to sell the short block with the parts installed or separately. I will also sell some of the parts separately once the short block is sold.
Please feel free to pm, call, or text with questions. three1eight-two7eight-five5nine5
Keep an eye out for the CEA PT8884 turbo and LSA FEAD (here) for sale also. I can make a killer package deal for a serious buyer.

As promised, here are some pictures of the parts mentioned in the listing.
Also, I've had a few questions asking how much it would cost to complete the short block. It will all depends on the parts chosen... my labor is going to basically be free. That alone should help justify buying the complete long block with the quality parts already installed.

I have decided to start putting together some pricing options that I have discussed through PMs and a refresher on the short block as it sits.
1. Assembled short block (as it sits now) - $5,000
2. Assembled long block - $8,000
The assembled long block will also include the following parts, but they can also be purchased separately with the short block. The parts listed below alone are well over $4k, and my labor is technically free.
3. Any possible combination of the parts
Parts also available for purchase to the person that buys the motor:
After a few inquiries, I will try to determine a price for the long block with the stock 823 casting heads.
Hope that clears up some questions!
